A pile of progress...

The overtime money burned a hole in my pocket. Now I can get to work building...

That looks like a sweet start to something good!

The first part I build will be a rear crossmember to replace the rotted factory piece. Then the Blue Torch Fab piece gets welded on the back for the XJ springs.

The second thing I build will be a Transmission crossmember.

The third will be a belly up skid plate frame. Once I get that sized I'll buy the plate.

I have enough to do rock sliders and shock mounts too.

I just ordered another bunch more parts. I'm going to give the MORE frame reinforcement plates a try. I also bought some other misc parts for building mounts for a custom Transmission crossmember, skid plate, and traction bar. I also ordered a bunch of stuff for the 401 to get it all buttoned up and ready for the TBI.

One thing that stinks about instant tracking of your UPS shipments is that you know when they arrived in town late yesterday but won't be delivered until Monday.

It's such a nice weekend to be working on the Jeep. Why didn't I order the parts sooner in the week?
